COMBINATIION COFOKER,'BAKER, AND BROILER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 268,855, dated December 12, 1882. Application filed July 17, 1882. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, WILLIAM B. BILLINGS, a citizen of the United States, resident in the town of Westmoreland, county ofOneida, State of New York, have invented a new and useful article called a Combination Cooker, Baker, and Broiler, of which the following is a specification.

My invention consists in certain improvements upon and additions to a combination baker and boiler for which a patent was granted June 27, 1882, and numbered 260,081.

The following specification sets forth how said improvement is made, the drawings annexed being a part of the specification Figures 1 and 2 are front elevation views of my improved baker. Fig. 3 is section view upward of the lower end of the central flue and Fig. at is a detached view of theboiler G. Fig. 5 is a similar view of the steamer or box F.

Similar letters represent similar parts in y the different views.

Fig. 1 represents my baker, which may be made of Russia iron or other suitable material, and is adapted in size to a three-burner oilstore, said baker being twenty inches long, thirteen inches wide, and teninches high, provided with a central flue, 't', elliptical in form, as in Fig. 3. The size of the baker may be varied to suit a greater or less number of stoveburners. The damper Kmay be used as shown, or placed in the upper end of the flue. The double top and the double bottoms are shown in Fig. 2, a half-inch space being between them, respectively. The fluet extends from the outer bottom to the inner top. The openingL in the outer top, over thecentral flue, '5, permits the escape of heat, steam, or gas, and is provided with the rim L, to stiffen the top and to provide a suitable place for broiling meat and for other purposes.

M represents a broiler, of any desired construction, upon the top of the casing andover the central flue. (See Fig. 2.) By theopening z" in Fig. 2, at the lower end of the central flue, the heat may pass from the burner or any other source of heat between the outer and inner bottomsto the openings '8, into the oven D, and through the oven D to the openings 2'', passing out between the inner and outer top at L. r

In Fig. 1, letter E represents a chamber containing the boiler Gr and the steamer or box F. These vessels can be made movable or fixed,

and when detached the chamber may be used for warming or other culinary purposes. The steamer or box F is made to fit loosely in the boiler G on the rests ff, to enable the steam to pass up from the boiler into the top of the steamer or box. The bottom of said steamer being solid, no water drips through itjnto the boiler. Thus the hot water in the boiler is kept clean and pure for culinary purposes,the water being drawn from the faucet 9.

Having fully set forth the improvement which produces my combination cooker, baker, and broiler, what Iclaim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. A baker provided with double top and double bottom, having openings t" and i" and 2'', whereby the air or products of combustion can pass from the burner or any sourceot' heat between the double bottom, then through the oven, and finally through the double top to the opening L, substantially as described.

2. A baker having a central flue, t, and damperK, combined with the openingsi i '5'", the boiler G, and the steamer or box F, fixed or movable, inclosed in the chamber E, sub stantially as and for the purposes set forth.

3. Abakerhavingacentralflue,i,anddamp- .er K, the oven D, provided with openings 11 i t, and the. chamber E, provided with the boiler G and the steamer or box F, for the purposes substantially as set forth.

W. B. BILLINGS.
